Does anyone use any application to easily keep and retrieve code snippets? I
would like something that would readily store snippets, classes and
functions etc that I am likely to re-use, or may use in the future.

Herfried gave you the link to the Snippet Editor that one
of the MVP's wrote. I'm assuming you have VS2005. To see
the snippets available, type in ? and then tab, and it will
show you the list. When you're looking at the list, if you
mouseover one, or pick it with the keyboard, it will show
the "shortcut" in the tooltip. You can type in the shortcut
and hit <Tab> and it will insert it in your code.

In addition to the other responses, from the text editor, you can
highlight a snippet of code and then just drag it to the toolbox. You
can then drag it into any other program as needed.
